“And in the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years.”

While not specifically a genealogy site, Lifehacker.com has a lot to offer the family historian. To be found at this site are software reviews, the majority of which are freeware programs or open-source software, tips and tuts for computer use written in plain English and their “Best of” series, a reader-driven poll of the best programs in particular categories. New or established web sites are also examined, with lots of “how-to” thrown in for extra flavor. The site is easily searcheable and results are graded according to relevance.

As you can see, Lifehacker covers a lot of ground. I subscribe to the RSS feed, which makes it quite easy to keep up with the latest in online-research-open-source-freeware-software-image-editors-gallery-web-site-reviews-anything-and-everything-related-to-genealogy-family-history-news!
